Route 21 Roy E. Furman Highway Surface Improvements Continue Monday in Greene County

Uniontown, PA - Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) District 12 is announcing that single-lane restrictions on Route 21 (Roy E. Furman Highway) are scheduled to begin Monday, July 8, between Route 19 (Mount Morris Road) and Elm Drive in Franklin Township, Greene County.

Crews from Gulisek Construction will be repairing inlets and patching concrete pavement.

One lane of traffic will be continuously open in each direction. Short term stoppages may be required to permit the entry and exit of trucks and/or equipment into the open lanes.

Restrictions are anticipated through mid-August. All work depends on weather and operations.

Motorists are asked to use caution while driving through the work zone and allow extra travel time. Safety is everyone's responsibility.

This work is part of the $4.9 million Route 21 East of Waynesburg concrete patching project. The full scope includes concrete patching, dowel retrofit, cross stitching, spall and mountable curb repair, milling and resurfacing, high friction surface treatment, inlet tops replacement, guide rail, signal upgrades, delineation, and signing. The full job - which will require long-term single-lane restrictions - is anticipated to continue through October 2024.

Exercise caution while approaching the work zone. Remain alert and follow the posted signs and speed limits. Safety is everyone's responsibility.
